Easy AF Healthy Pumpkin Butter
The second I feel a chill in the air is the second I start craving anything/everything pumpkin. More specifically I was craving a healthy pumpkin butter! This pumpkin butter is super simple and can be used on toast, bread, banana bread, with some fruit, on pancakes, etc. – really anything!
Healthy Pumpkin Butter Specifics
This pumpkin butter doesn’t have the name ‘Easy AF’ in it for no reason – it’s super simple! No crazy ingredients needed. It’s super versatile and can be used with truly anything in the Fall. Here’s what you need:
- Pumpkin: Of course :)..I like to buy canned organic pumpkin in a BPA free can. Typically the store brand will be able to meet this criteria. Just be sure that it’s no added sugar and not ‘pumpkin pie filling’ – all you need is the organic pumpkin puree.
- Spice it up: For this recipe, I used a combination of Pumpkin Pie Spice, Cinnamon and Pure Vanilla Extract. Be sure that it’s pure vanilla extract instead of the ‘vanilla flavor’ which is completely artificial and full of chemicals.
- Sweeten it up: To sweeten this, I used monk fruit sweetener, as well as monk fruit maple syrup. However, regular pure organic maple syrup would be delicious as well!
